A story of blindness, relationships, freedom, love and faith.
Song: "Oh How I Need You" by All Sons & Daughters
Without God, I would be nothing. The relationships that He has planted in my life have molded me and brought me exactly to where I am today, and I am so incredibly thankful, and excited.

"Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured such opposition from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart." Hebrews 12:1-3
"Let them praise his name with dancing and make music to him with timbrel and harp." Psalms 149:3

1. This week’s study asks this question: “What should a person like who has just ‘been with Jesus’?” How would you answer that?
2. There is also mention in this week’s study of “social networking,” New Testament style, in the formation Jesus’ earliest followers. How did that work?
3. What examples from Scripture could we benefit from regarding people who felt unprepared or unfit for service to God?
4. What can we learn from Jesus’ words, “ ‘ “One sows and another reaps” ’ ”? (John 4:37).

Social, economic, and cultural forces have turned the religious landscape upside down and have redefined our notion of church, prompting some to describe this phenomenon as a “new reality.” In October 2011, a panel of six experienced Nazarene pastors and church leaders met to share how they re-tooled and re-focused their churches in the midst of sweeping change and created new earmarks for measuring ministry success. This segment focuses on doing church differently in the “new reality.” USA/Canada Regional Director Bob Broadbooks hosted the discussion, which included Bud Reedy, Max Rodas, Ron Salsbury, David Sharpes, Carla Sunberg, and Gene Tanner. Video of the entire panel session is available at www.graceandpeacemagazine.org.
